Azure Security
Assessment.

Microsoft Azure and Entra ID are the backbone of many Australian enterprise environments. HackLabs' cloud security specialists assess your Azure environment for misconfigurations, identity risks, and insecure architectures that attackers actively exploit.

// Azure Security Challenges

Identity is the new perimeter — and attackers know it.

Azure and Microsoft 365 environments are increasingly targeted by threat actors who understand that Entra ID is the master identity for most enterprise environments. Overpermissive service principals, legacy authentication protocols, misconfigured conditional access policies, and insecure RBAC assignments create pathways to full tenant compromise. HackLabs assesses your Azure environment with the same techniques used by nation-state attackers.

// Assessment Areas

What we assess

Entra ID & Identity

Assessment of Entra ID configuration including conditional access policies, legacy authentication, MFA coverage, B2B/B2C settings, and identity protection configuration.

RBAC & Privileged Access

Review of Azure RBAC role assignments, custom roles, service principal permissions, and PIM configuration for overpermission and privilege escalation paths.

Network Security

Assessment of virtual network architecture, network security groups, Azure Firewall, private endpoints, and internet-exposed services across your Azure subscriptions.

Storage & Data Security

Review of Azure Storage accounts, SQL databases, Cosmos DB, and data services for public access configuration, encryption, and access policy weaknesses.

Microsoft 365 Security

Assessment of Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams, and Defender for Microsoft 365 configuration for data exposure, sharing settings, and security control gaps.

Logging & Defender for Cloud

Review of Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, Microsoft Sentinel, and Defender for Cloud configuration to identify visibility gaps and detection capability weaknesses.
